Platinum 5 Star Condo - 100 Steps to Gondola - Free Ski Valet!
Year Purchased: 2006
Why the Owner Chose Lionshead Arcade
Friends of ours from Santa Barbara, who own another unit in the building, told us about the condo when it came on the market. We bought it sight unseen immediately & have never regreted it. We loved the condo because of how close it was to the ski school & the Gondola & mountain - not to mention the shops, the restaurants & the town bus. LOCATION! LOCATION! LOCATION!
The Unique Benefits at this Condominium
Our condo building is just about closer to the mountain than any other. The location is perfect for any family. The Lionshead ski school is 15 feet from our building; we can check our 11 year old into her class & then go back to the condo & get ourselves ready. There is a rental shop at the bottom of the stairs where you can leave your equipment each day after skiing. We are located less than a minute walk to & from the Gondola. That means - no dragging heavy equiptment onto busses; no long walks back to the parking lots; no drives to neighboring towns in traffic. The condo is about LOCATION! LOCATION!! LOCATION!!! Since we spend so much time in Vail, we have decorated it be as comfortably as possible & it is ideal for couples or family living. There are flat screen TVs in Master & Living Room & a smaller TV in the 2nd bedroom. It is easy to cook a meal - or, if you prefer to eat out, there are many restaurants in walking distance OR the free town bus that runs constantly from early morning to late evening can take you anywhere in Vail to eat. We know you will enjoy the place as much as we do!
We have skied many other ski resorts for the past 30 years but we "bought" @ Vail Mountain as it is the premier resort to ski in the country. And the Lionshead Ski School is probably the best ski school that we have ever experienced.
The bus stop is 35 feet from our condo. The free bus can take you anywhere in town. It is most convenient. "D" on the bus stop is a 30 second bus ride away. The bus runs all day & night & is the qui
100 steps away. Our building is the closest to the Lionshead Gondola - which is the ONLY enclosed access to the top of the Vail Mountain. Ask us about the ski valet at the bottom of the mountain!! y
The outdoor ice skating rink is directly across the square from the Arrabelle Hotel Lobby & the Spa. You can rent skates for adults & kids. The Spa is wonderful & all treatments include the steam, j
Owner's Map of Lionshead Arcade
We are a family of 5 (18 year old daughter, Jackie is missing) who live in Santa Barbara, CA (see our other site) and vacation in Vail as often as possible. RJ (19) & Maddy (11) have traveled to the "dark side" and are snow boarders while Kate & Ken still manage to get down the slope on skies. All of us enjoy the snow & it brings our family closer together each time we travel to Vail. We spend alot of time in the condo and have done our best to make it a wonderful & very comfortable experience for ourselves & our renters
